LS2 Helmets Open Face Spitfire Helmet

Amazingly perfect ... worth every penny .. stylish .. safe .. sunvisor is amazing .. it blocks sun .. that i even ride with no sunglasses now a days .. comfortable and simple

Great helmet!- I usually wear a size small - medium (depending on the brand). A small in this helmet fit with a little room to spare.- The face shield has a few settings and although pulling it all the way down will touch your nose; it also keeps the wind out of your eye at higher speeds.- I wear glasses and they fit behind the shield.- A sleek pair of earbuds will work with this helmet. I have the Enacfire 5.0 Bluetooth earbuds.- Noise level is comparable to a Bell 3/4...meaning not too loud, but it is a 3/4.

The goodGraffix are stunning.Very cool helmet.Looks like a F14 flight helmet with a touch of WW2 bomber airplane.The not so good.I wear a 7 3/4 hat size so I ordered the XX Largeand it fits TO SMALL like a 7 1/2.We all know how your head feels wearing a hat or helmet to small. I'm hoping it will loosen up and I dont have to send it back LS2

Fits snug after adjusting straps. Only issues are with the drop down sun shield. Fully down and with a mask it fogs up pretty quick when stopped. Also I spoke with L2 about replacement shields for night time crusing or when damaged and they currently don't have any or plan to.

I wanted to try out a 3/4 helmet so I got this one. Here's my pros and cons.Pros:1) Price - under $110 and it's DOT and ECE rated. Obvi not Snell rated since it has a retractable sunvisor and it's an open face bike helmet.2) The sunvisor was what I was going for. I'm older so I have to wear distance correction glasses for driving and the sunvisor fits over them with no issues or distortion.3) Super lightweight - my size Large weighs 2.47 lbs (1120 grams)4) Comes with a helmet bag.5) Comfortable fit for a large without squeezing my head or cheeks. Back in the day 20-25 years ago, a medium would fit snug and a large would be a little bit more roomy (full face helmets) Nowadays, NO way I can shoehorn my 7.5" fitted cap/58cm head in any modern medium full face helmet and even large helmets squeeze my cheeks. The LS2 Spitfire in large is a nice comfy fit.Cons:1) This open face helmet is loud/noisy in the wind. Even with the sunvisor down. I probably will relegate this helmet to lower speed scoots around town or if it's really hot outside. Definitely safer/quieter in a full face.2) The ratchet strap is polarizing. You either like it or you don't. I like it because it's quick to put on, but the padding behind the strap moves around and for men it's easy to pinch your adams apple if the padding is off center. Plus since it's not a double-D ring, you probably won't be able to use this helmet on any helmet lock system that relies on locking the D-ring.3) Rain hurts on your exposed mouth/cheeks that and cicadas at 75mph. (see photo)4) The goggle loop at the back is NOT detachable - like really?5) No three front forehead snaps if you want to add a front bill or bubble shield if you were planning to.6) It is an open face helmet - if you crash and land on your face, well yeah = you won't be protected.

I LOVE this helmet. I have only recently switched to a 3/4 helmet, and only did so because of how heavy my full face one was. After 6 hours on the bike, my upper back and neck would be super sore. I had bought a cheap BILT Jet to try it out and loved it. But it was just super basic. This with the added visor and awesome graphics was exactly what I wanted. Love the visor. I have tried other helmets where the visor didn't come down very far, but that is not the case here. This comes down and touches the end of my nose. I am also able to wear glasses under it. I also love the quick release chin strap. I was reading that people tend to love it or hate it? I don't understand the hate honestly. Overall a great helmet at a great price.I measured right between the large and xl, so I bought one of each and planned on returning the one that did not fit since I had read other reviews stating that it seemed to run small. My BILT helmet was a large for reference. The large fit perfectly. The xl seemed to somehow fit tighter on my head? Maybe it is my head shape?It is also slightly heavier and bulkier than my BILT jet helmet. I see this as a good thing because that usually means more protection.

After a crash I needed a new helmet. I purchased the LS2 due to the vents, drop down visor, and clean finish. It fit with more of a "round oval" than an "intermediate oval." My head (L) is definitely not a "round oval." I got a hot spot in the middle of my forehead almost immediately. Some of this could have been due to the helmet being new, so I don't pass much judgement about that point. It sit a little bit lower on my head than my Torc T50 by nearly a 1/4". The helmet's finish was incredibly clean and smooth. The drop down visor did not distort my vision during testing at all.This is a very, very nice helmet that I wish I could keep.The biggest issue for me is that the helmet does NOT fit the Cardo Freecom1 bluetooth system. The speakers cannot be placed over the ears, and with poly material all the way down to the jaw line the speakers stick out quite far. Unfortunately this is not going to work.

First let me say that I am happy I purchase this helmet, now that's out the way. I love how this helmet for my head and when I am cruising 50+ mph it's not ready to fly off my head. I was looking to buy other helmets before I purchase this one, but this was what the doctor ordered. It help minimize wind noise and keep you focus on the road. Then you can roll down the visor to help with sun protection. I added some reflectors to my helmet to get more visibility during the day and at night. This is an A+ helmet, I already sent it to my brother to buy since he is in Mami busy traffic. I will let others know to buy this helmet, and it can help save your life.

Helmet was even better looking in person.Quality exceeds my expectations and paint colors are amazing.Great fit and love the look of the helmet.
